DATA OF INTEREST
DESCRIPTION

A historical path between two villages or 'Ventas' located in the geographical and ecological centre of the Sierra de Cardeña y Montoro Natural Park, like so many others in the surroundings, evoking a not too distant past in which this territory was mainly a place of transit between the valley of the Guadalquivir and la Meseta, a great, almost uninhabited area in which nature could maintain power and dominion. This is still evident now and we can still see the endless pastures through which we are invited to walk.

The hiking trail runs through several cattle trails. These trails have created a colossal network of routes throughout Spain since the Middle Ages, for centuries they were the backbone of Spain. However, in recent times, since livestock has been transported by road or rail, or simply since they stopped moving between summer and winter pastures, cattle trails began to disappear from the map and, also from the memory of the people.

Now the process is being reversed again, as evidenced by the road signs that remind us that some trails are public and that although they are no longer used for transhumance purposes, they can and should have other uses that benefit the general public, even if they are simply used as public paths or wildlife corridors.

HOW TO GET

Several roads converge in Cardeña: the N-420 (Montoro-Tarragona) connecting to the Guadalquivir valley, the A-423 (Cardeña-Alzaracejos) and the A-420 (Cardeña-Marmolejo). Once in Cardeña, take the lane to Aldea del Cerezo that passes under the N-420 bypass. Once in the village, the path leads south from that same lane.
